Sergienko (Blagoveschensk Educational State University) MASTER Global Robotic Net ( http://observ.pereplet.ru, Lipunov et al., 2010,Advances in Astronomy, vol. 2010, 30L) observed GRB 190731A (Fermi team GCN 25240) in alert (Lipunov et al. GCN 25243) and inspect modes. MASTER-VWF (very wide field) cameras (D=82 mm, F/1.2, FOV=2x384 sq. degree) located in MASTER-SAAO robotic telescope was pointed to the GRB 190731A by Fermi GBM (trigger 586305505) localization. The first images obtain 21 seconds after notice and 45 second after trigger time at 2019-07-31 22:39:05. Due to the MASTER-VWFC field of view both Fermi/LAT(Ohno et al., GCN 25244) and Swift/XRT (Evans et al. 25245, Osborne et al., GCN 25251,and also detected by CALET Asaoka et al. GCN25246 and triangulated by IPN Hurley et al. GCN25250) position are covered by these images. We do not see any optical transients at Swift XRT position with upper limit 12.5m (MASTER-VWFC). MASTER-SAAO robotic telescope was pointed to the GRB 190731A LAT localization (Fermi LAT team GCN 25244) errorbox 65745 sec after trigger time at 2019-08-01 16:54:08 UT, with upper limit up to 21.4 mag (MASTER-II). Observations started at twilight. The observations began at zenit distance = 65 deg, the sun altitude is -11.3 deg. During this observations we also not find any optical transient connected with GRB. Real time updated cover map and OT discovered available here: https://master.sai.msu.ru/site/master2/observ.php?id=1093251 We obtain a following upper limits.
